It's a new month, a new start . . . again!http://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=79197605Johannehttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=79197605#commentsThu, 31 Aug 2017 22:19:00 GMThttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=79197605You: On a DietGaining weightHi all. Hi Sazy and Is. Thanks for taking ...Hi all. Hi Sazy and Is. Thanks for taking time to pop in. I'm having a rough time getting back in stride. I went to the Dr's today for bloodwork and a general checkup to talk about kidney stones and the general lethargy. I don't know whether it's mental/stress or something physical. The tests may tell us something. In the meantime, I'll try to be more present here. So many of my dearest buddies are showing back up, including Stef, who we've all missed so much. I fasted until 3 pm today. It was the earliest I could get a Dr's appointment so I'm feeling pretty lousy right now, even though I've eaten.. I'm headed to bed. Good night all.http://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=66538648Johannehttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=66538648#commentsFri, 03 Mar 2017 04:07:00 GMThttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=66538648You: On a DietJournal entryI'm trying . . . again.I'm trying . . . again.http://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=64332888Johannehttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=64332888#commentsThu, 02 Feb 2017 15:48:00 GMThttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=64332888You: On a DietLosing weightI'm trying to make a comeback. Staying away ...I'm trying to make a comeback. Staying away is, quite obviously, NOT working. It's a mindset and I lost mine somewhere along the way.http://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=60724069Johannehttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=60724069#commentsMon, 05 Dec 2016 03:54:00 GMThttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=60724069You: On a DietJournal entryThis is what happens when you don't log your ...This is what happens when you don't log your food and stay away from fatsecret. The last few days I logged my food just to see how bad it's been, eating whatever I wanted. I didn't even try to restrict my eating. I just ate whatever I was craving. That included gluten. I had plenty of pickle juice in the house for the Charley horses. Now the raw mouth and achy joints are in play. Next come the IBS and skin lesions. I hope I've stopped in time to avoid those. It will take a few weeks to get the gluten out of my system. I feel like I'm trying suicide by food. I don't think I've eaten enough gluten for the anemia to kick in full force. I'm going to try really hard to get back on my eating plan. I feel like my brain has short circuited.http://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=55485691Johannehttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=55485691#commentsThu, 18 Aug 2016 12:00:00 GMThttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=55485691You: On a DietGaining weightTry # 2,500,055. I understand the concept ...Try # 2,500,055. I understand the concept . . . eat less, eat healthy, lose weight. I've even done it before. I haven't gained back the whole, original 70 lbs I lost but, over the years, it's slowly creeping back. The cravings are so crazy. I just don't understand why I keep giving in to them. I could easily be down 52 lbs by this time next year. Doing it is a whole, nother thing.http://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=53659264Johannehttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=53659264#commentsSat, 02 Jul 2016 16:01:00 GMThttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=53659264You: On a DietJournal entryNot a gain!Not a gain!http://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=52151190Johannehttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=52151190#commentsFri, 27 May 2016 05:46:00 GMThttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=52151190You: On a DietLosing weightWell, it's not as bad as it could have been, ...Well, it's not as bad as it could have been, considering what I've been eating for the last two months. On top of that, my latest blood work was outstanding. My cholesterol levels are well within normal for the first time ever and even my triglycerides were barely too high. My glucose looked great and my anemia is under control. Now I just have to get my food amounts back under control. I think I'll try the 8/16 IF for awhile and see if that helps. I find the 2/5 IF a bit hard to deal with. It's so easy to NOT eat that it's tempting to continue . . . not good! Back to the high road. I need to get the rest of this weight off!http://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=51816442Johannehttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=51816442#commentsThu, 19 May 2016 17:49:00 GMThttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=51816442You: On a DietGaining weightI've been gone. I've been lost. I've been ...I've been gone. I've been lost. I've been oblivious. I've been gaining weight. If I don't actively pay attention every single day, the habits I had five years ago just slide right back into place. What the heck is wrong with me?!!! I have real food allergy testing scheduled for June 2nd. The blood test has shown a few more and I know there are more than that. After every meal, I suffer total lethargy. I just want to sleep. I'm plowing on with the weaving. People are depending on me. After July, I should be able to relax a little and work on projects for the fiber show in November to make a little money to support supplies and tools for next year. I'm going to start journaling my food again today. If I don't, I just eat anything and everything.http://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=51710522Johannehttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=51710522#commentsTue, 17 May 2016 13:32:00 GMThttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=51710522You: On a DietJournal entryI'm still here, lurking. I've got a long, ...I'm still here, lurking. I've got a long, frustrating project on the loom and now I'm sick. I do think I may have found the perfect appetite suppressant. My friends onion, lemon, honey tea. The problem is, the amount of honey in it has to amount to a butt load of calories. It does seem to help drop the congestion. I'm going back to bed. I just wanted to pop in and let everyone know I'm still on every day for a minute to log my food and check your journals, even if I haven't been commenting. Hugs!http://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=48031311Johannehttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=48031311#commentsSat, 27 Feb 2016 01:54:00 GMThttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=48031311You: On a DietJournal entryWent off the tracks over the weekend, two ...Went off the tracks over the weekend, two parties, and brought food home. All of it was gluten free. All of it was healthy. Unfortunately, gluten free and healthy doesn't mean low calorie. Back on today. I MUST journal my food. When I don't, I gain. It's as simple as that.http://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=46359748Johannehttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=46359748#commentsThu, 21 Jan 2016 17:13:00 GMThttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=46359748You: On a DietGaining weightI'm perfectly OK until I eat something.

Wow! I knew it was going to be bad, but . . . just WOW! OK. Now it's time to take stock and start again. I know how to do it. I just have to get my head back into it. I don't have any unhealthy food in the house.http://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=45688144Johannehttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=45688144#commentsThu, 07 Jan 2016 16:54:00 GMThttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=45688144You: On a DietGaining weightHappy New Year! I've been totally absent ...Happy New Year! I've been totally absent since my internet was down. It's amazing how easy it is to get out of the habit of doing something . . . much easier than getting into the habit. I'm back to food journaling and FS, as of today. Two more days of silly eating and I'll be getting back on track. I'm going to East Indian tomorrow before a memorial for a dear friend. I have all the food in the house to get back to eating correctly, Sunday. I know we are all going to have a wonderful and fulfilling new year. Hugs, everyone!http://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=45420287Johannehttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=45420287#commentsFri, 01 Jan 2016 16:01:00 GMThttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=45420287You: On a DietJournal entryI'm back.

It's funny how quickly we have become addicted to having that connection. 15 years ago, I didn't even have a cell phone, let alone internet. Now I feel frantic without either one of them. I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving (my American friends) and are all geared up for Christmas/Yule/Hanukkah/Kwanzaa/winter holiday of choice! I'm quite rushed now, getting end-of-year projects done, but I'll try to be present.

It's such a relief. The second good effect? I really like the lunch soup I invented and find I want to continue eating it. That's "souper". LOL! I'm glad I did the fast and plan to continue to do it once a month for the foreseeable future. I won't know if it actually has any health effects for at least three months but I have a feeling it will. Have a great week all my buddies!http://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=43839632Johannehttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=43839632#commentsMon, 02 Nov 2015 18:02:00 GMThttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=43839632You: On a DietJournal entryMy final day of "fast mimicking". The week ...My final day of "fast mimicking". The week hasn't been nearly as bad as I expected. I really haven't been hungry and haven't had any cravings. We'll see what happens when I go back to my normal WOE. I'm hoping the cravings stay gone. I have to try this for at least three months to see if I have any of the health improvements listed. The biggest problem is the shortbread I have to make today for tomorrow's party!

I'm getting too old for winter. Every year I better understand why old people move to places like Florida and Nevada.

It's not h ...Second day of Fast Mimicking. It's not horrible. It's cold and wet and the first day of the World Series. I'm not really a sports fan but it's fun that the Royals have won the pennant two years in a row. People here are psyched. I just hope we don't get rained out. Here's a picture of all of us in our hats, yesterday. It's 10:15. I'm watching the game. I have to admit, under 800 calories . . . I'm HUNGRY. The headache is getting pretty bad. I just checked my glucose, though, and it's fine. I should just go to bed, but I want to see who wins. It's 12:15. Going into the 14th inning. I'm beyond hungry. Head is pounding. My glucose is still OK. I don't even LIKE sports! Why am I still up?!!! Finally! 12:25. KC won. I can go to bed. G'night!http://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=43671726Johannehttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=43671726#commentsTue, 27 Oct 2015 22:37:00 GMThttp://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=43671726You: On a DietJournal entry
